What do you do with affiliates who never do anything--despite your constant encouragement and offers of support?

There is an old saying which says "You can take a horse to the water but you can`t make it drink" However when the horse gets thirsty enough, it will come running at a gallop for the water! All you can do is keep on encouraging them and hoping that they will actually grasp what is on offer. Unfortunately, most people are just too lazy to help themselves and live in the false bubble of "everything will be ok" For some it will be too late by the time they wake up and realize they don`t have enough income to survive. Hopefully the affiliates that you keep on encouraging will eventually see that this business will benefit them and they will get going with it sooner rather than later and become successful in it like so many others have already.
The big thing to always remember is that you have a golden opportunity within this business and if your affiliates don`t do anything with it then they are the big losers at the end of the day, not you.

I believe that successful leaders in SFI know how to get important information across to their PSA`s without putting unnecessary pressure on them to perform, especially while the PSA`s are still very new to the SFI system. It can be very overwhelming when you first start with SFI so the leader needs to bear this in mind and answer all questions asked to them in a very explanatory way, even if they seem rather basic and sometimes even silly.
A successful leader knows how to bring out the best in people through encouragement and leading by example. The leader should initially know a lot more about the business than the people he/she has signed up under him/her.

You need to show genuine interest in your affiliates. Don`t look at them as potential money in your pocket but rather as people with whom you can work with and become long term business partners. After all your affiliates success is your success so the more you help them the more you help yourself. It can be quite overwhelming for a new affiliate in this business so be ready to spoon feed them initially until they get the idea of how to become successful.
